Boy, the day I spell Gallifreyan right without messing up is the day I become a companion.This was quite fun to do! It's simply the TARDIS from Doctor Who as a steampunk creation, and I'm quite glad I avoided adding a chimney on top.The writing of the stained-glass window is just gibberish.

With all due respect to the uniqueness of your design, I think the TARDIS, especially in the Tennant series, is about the most "steampunk" thing in the world ALREADY. This is more like a Psychedelic TARDIS to me. I half expect Ruth Buzzi to pop out of that Gallifreyan stained-glass window and tell a joke...

Very colorful, and I can see the artistic skill, but it just is so pointlessly flashy. It misses so much of the point of what the external appearance of the TARDIS and demands that it be recognized as an amazing time machine. I'd be a lot more impressed if you could do a gaslamp style TARDIS exterior that looks like it would actually fit into a Victoriana setting and be overlooked until you knew what was inside.

Most of this design is supposed to be pointlessly flashy. A working C-circuit could disguise a TARDIS as aaaanythiiiing it wanted, but I specifically wanted to draw one that looks quite a lot like a time machine. That's why there's a big clock, and much of the brass accents are inspired by H.G. Well's time machine. Actually, I think if this ship landed in a proper steampunk world with airships, cyborg pirates, and Tesla cannons it would blend in. But, otherwise, drawing something drabber, simpler, and sliding down the saturation levels while adding a grunge filter would be easy.

Sure thing, just for you. I think I will make an interior, with a hat stand, nice chairs, a wrap-around railing, and I'm thinking of having the console being built around a clear-blue crystal sculpture of Idris, with her hands over a glowing spot where her heart would be.
